Ok let me dig out the code.

Right i have a php file in the root dir containing the flight board code, i include that with a php include in the frontpage_main.tpl

In the frontpage_main.tpl i have this at the top,

<script type="text/javascript">
setInterval(function() {
   $("#fboard").load(location.href+" #fboard>*","");
}, 60000);
</script>

Thats it then just enclose that php include in a div,

so,

<div id="fboard"> <?php include 'path_to_your_file.php';</div>

Hm… OK!

So i just came home from work. Tomrrow i will try this.. i think this will work out just fine!

Thanks for the help Mark!

Not sure if this will help but maybe: http://yourwebite.co…/your-page-here ?

(using action.php instead of index.php)

Kindest Regards,

Yeah, but when i do that link, i get also the logo and stuff in there. I only want the flightboard so i can iframe that into the index page.

or if there is another way of doing it, please let me know! :slight_smile:

G’day Guys,

Ive seen alot of interest in the flight board, so i decided to create a background for one, what i hope to achieve is to have the letters display over the top of the image below and use the image as a background. Is this possible ?

anyways here is what i created earlier today

Yeah that would be great.

By the way guys, because i don’t have the knowledge how to do it, i am willing to pay for a board with fancy letters and stuff :slight_smile:

Regards

Lucas

You could do it with an image like that, using css. You could use a table and work out the letter spacing etc. It would be a pig to do though, especially as cross browser rendering differences & user text size preferences could easily make it a mess. I might have a go at designing a layout for it over the weekend, depending on what the rest of the family has planned.

Something Like this would be great, as you wouldnt have the spacing issue, looks really good too
